Adele The 36-year-old Grammy winner confirmed she is engaged to American sports agent Rich Paul to her fans while performing in Germany on August 9, 2024.
Social media videos show Adele speaking to fans during her performance, reading out a sign which read: “Will you marry me?”
“I can’t marry you because I’m already getting married so I can’t, but I appreciate it, thank you!” she said, to cheers from the audience.
In November 2023 Adele hinted she had already married Rich, whom she met in 2021, when she called out “I did!” when comedian Alan Carr asked his audience if anyone had recently got married.
She never confirmed any further details, and earlier in July reports emerged that the pair were engaged when Adele was spotted wearing a pear-shaped diamond ring on her ring finger while walking with Rich in London.
